If you're looking for a tremendous book to read on the Civil War, I recommend this one.

Just finished this. A fantastic book, both about Homer's Odyssey and the author's relationship with his father, who takes his class on the Odyssey.
Mr. Bennet is probably not too different from many of us, who want a little peace and quiet from the commotion in his house and probably couldn’t say no to his wife, who is truly annoying. Mrs Bennet probably is not fond of Elizabeth because she has more of an ambition than simply getting married.
I read P & P a couple of months ago and will be reading S & S soon. Mr. Bennett is almost a side character but who can’t sympathize with his plight. Although certain of his daughters are annoying, none can compare with Mr. Collins. A truly annoying man! The book’s opening line is a classic.
One of the great performances in recent memory. Three quarters of his pitches were for strikes. Excellent is two thirds.
The pitching in this series has been a treat to watch.
